Hailing from Punjab, Taniya became the youngest player to play for her state's senior team when she took to the field in an inter-state domestic tournament at the age of 13.
The wicket-keeper soon joined the India A squad at 16 and eventually made her international debut in a T20I match against South Africa in February 2018.
Taniya was also a member of the Indian squad for the 2018 ICC Women's World Twenty20 hosted by the West Indies.
